Bellator has announced that due to a hand injury, Patricky “Pitbull” Freire will no longer fight Marcin Held at the promotion’s May 17th event in Southaven, Mississippi.

As a result, the promotion has added a featherweight tilt between Shahbulat Shamhalaev and Fabricio Guerreiro to the card. The lightweight tourney final between “Pitbull” and Marcin Held will be rebooked for a later date.

Shamhalaev (12-2-1) hasn’t fought since April, 2013, when he was choked out by featherweight champion Pat Curran.

Guerreiro (19-3), is also coming off a loss, as he was decisioned by Patricio “Pitbull” Freire at Bellator 103 in October.

Here is the updated line-up for Bellator 120, which will mark the promotion’s pay-per-view debut.
